About MolDescriptor
MolDescriptor is a simple, free webtool for anyone who wants to calculate molecular descriptors. Molecular structures are submitted in the SMILES notation, select descriptors from the RDKIT package and the website will calculate these for you. You can downlaod the results as a CSV-file, and it's also possible to calculate a batch set of descriptors for multiple structures by uploading a CSV-file, which in turn can also be downloaded as a CSV-file.
MolDescriptor is still in development, and we appreciate any feedback to improve our website. If you have any suggestions, you can use the form on the feedback page.
RDkit
We are using RDkit to calculate the molecular properties. RDKit is a collection of cheminformatics and machine-learning software written in C++ and Python.
